Dear Linguist List readers,

Thank you to everyone who participated in our first poll!

The time for collecting votes has ended. We gave four examples of
anadromes and asked you to choose your favorite or submit one not
listed. Of the four examples we gave, the anadrome "stressed :
desserts" came in 1st place with 42.9% of the votes. In second place
came "raven : nevar  (English : Spanish - 'to snow')" with 24.5% of
the votes.

We received many submissions of anadromes from our readers. Here are
just a few:

Same language:
     denim : mined (English : English)
     alus: sula (Latvian - "beer" : Latvian - "juice")
     Regal : Lager (German - "shelf/bookcase": German -
"camp/store/warehouse")
     tide : edit (English : English)

Differing languages:
     trop : port (French - "too much" : English)
     pate : etap (English : Turkish - "stage")
     nib : bin (English : Thai - “to fly”)
     new : wen (English: Kosraean - "son")

The next poll will be coming out soon. Thank you again to all who
participated!

I also wanted to extend another heartfelt thank you to those that have
donated to our annual Fund Drive. Please consider donating if you have
